All the draft action at Moonee Valley

Above: Keen interest in the draft order: L-R Krish Kanchan, Monique and Hayden Rayner, Brayden McGregor (front), Ben Tarran and Max Jones.
There was intense interest around the draft table at our Ormond Park pavilion when we conducted our inaugural "player draft" fundraiser on October 18.
Thirteen Valley players, past players or consortiums each bought a team, and then put in bids to be as high up the draft order as they could.
Each team was able to draft four players, and the selections were lively as 52 players were snapped up from a far wider pool of available talent.
There was strong interest in our all-conquering Women's team, who have won four Premierships in the past five seasons - two players were chosen in the first round of the draft, and another two in the second round.
A fun night was had by all, and more importantly the event was a good boost to our budget.
Thanks to the principal organisers and participants on the night - Jack Newman, Dejan Gilevski and Tom Janetzki.
